Our kids have always enjoyed drawing and writing, even from a very young age. Most kiddos do seem to enjoy doodling, drawing, and writing. Somewhere along the way though, we tend to lose that excitement for writing. As a teacher, I see this all the time. Kiddos lose the love of writing because of all the restrictions we put on it - what to write, don't forget to spell that correctly, put a period, and a capital letter, and oh, spaces between your words.
